Q:

Sweety is 54 years old and her mother is 80. How many years ago was Sweety's mother three times her age?

A) 20 B) 41
C) 26 D) 33
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 41

Explanation:

Given P = 54 and M = 80

According to the question,

Let ‘A’ years ago, M = 3P

=> M - A/P - A = 3

=> 80 - A = 3(54 - A)

=> 80 - A = 162 - 3A

=> 2A = 82

=> A = 41

Therefore, A = 41 years ago Sweety’s mother was 3 times of Sweety’s age.

Hence, at the age S = 13 and M = 39.

Q:

A salesman calculated his profit on the marked price and finds it to be 30%. He forgets the fact that he gave a discount of 20%. What is his actual profit percentage?   

A) 260/11% B) 18.4%
C) 22.5% D) 100/7%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 100/7%

Explanation:

When profit is calculated on Marked Price (M.P) then,

      • C.P = M.P - P%

Let M.P = 100

 => C.P = 100 - 30 = 70

 But S.P = Rs. 80 as he gave 20% discount,

 Now, Actual Profit = 80-7070x100

  = 100/7 %
